Bind Combobox itemsource to xml file

i'm trying hard to load comboBox items from an xml file. Here is my code:

<Grid>
    <Grid.Resources>
        <XmlDataProvider x:Key="ScenesXml" XPath="scenari-list/scenario" Source="http://192.168.40.18/LeafHouse/scenari-appartamento-5.xml"/>
    </Grid.Resources>

    <ComboBox Name="scenariCombo" VerticalAlignment="Center" Width="120"
              ItemsSource="{Binding Source={StaticResource ScenesXml}}" DisplayMemberPath="@name" />
</Grid>

And here is a simplified version of the xml file:

<scenari-list>
   <scenario name="Fuori casa" value="fuori-casa">
      ...
   </scenario>
   <scenario name="Party" value="party">
      ...
   </scenario>
   <scenario name="ciao" value="ciao">
      ...
   </scenario>
</scenari-list>

I want scenario's names to appear inside the combobox.
I found the code i provided in lots of questions but it doesn't work for me.
Anyone can help?

XML is case-sensitive, so @Name should not yield any results as the attribute's name is name.

=> DisplayMemberPath="@name"
